PI KAPPA PHI FRATERNITY The National Office SuMTER, SouTH CAROLINA

Dear Brothers: It will indeed be a new experience to culminate three decades of active service. It all started with my being pledged in the Fall of 1932 to Alpha zeta chapter at Oregon State University, and then becoming a Pi Kappa Phi in FebruarY• 1933. I had the pleasure of serving my undergraduate chapter as Warden, Secre~ tary, and Archon. I was also privileged to serve my Fraternity as District 46 President on two occasions; once in the 1940's and later in the 1950's. From 19 to 1950, and again from 1955 to 1960 I served as your National Secretary particating with six different National Councils, including the present one as~ your National President. I assure you that it has always been a privilege to wor with men of the stature that the Supreme Chapters have elected to serve them· There have been many problems brought before our Fraternity in these last three decades. The growth, and increased fraternal outreach to undergradu~t~S~ ( alumni and community are too numerous to mention. This outreach has been poslt 1 v~; dynamic and good . Our Executive Secretaries have seen to this. During these sa \ three decades, we have witnessed certain social and economic changes, not onlru I in the structure of the home, the community, and the nation, but in the fraternl I world as well. Many of the changes that have taken place can, in a large part, be attributed to changi ng tone of government . What is government? Government is of, for ~nd bY the People. Government is a child of politics. Politics is a child of pollCY· 1 Policy is the off-spring of the People . So, as we contemplate the motivation of ee I government and economic and social changes that have taken place in the last tbr decades, we can better appreciated the present status of the fraternity system• It is, therefore, not surprising that we are in an area of hue and cry for d extension of Liberalism. And yet, the basic concept of government is predicate on the preservation of the individual and his individual rights. A Fraterni~YntS being composed ?f individuals must and needs to preserve their individual rlg I and not be reg1mented by legislation nor emotion into making changes for changes sake. Nor does the fraternity system want to hold back from making 0d r changes which are good for it; and in turn, if they are go od for it, they are go , for the individual and the community in which he functions. rrY f I feel that the Fraternity system now stands on a threshold which will car it forward and perpetuate it in the future decades as an instrument of good fO J the molding of character in young men of tomorrow; in allowing them to demon.. 'I strate leadership; in gi ving them the Art of Fraternity so as to put into t . practice social understanding; and in providing these men with an environmen ( where they can consummate their scholastic undertakings in an atmosphere of nat Christian understanding . Such an environment is a wholesome one. It is one t every Mother and Father holds for their son as he leaves high school and hiS adol escent environment for the pursuit of advanced academic knowledge. I know that many of these concerns will confront Pi Kappa Phi at its 29th Supreme Chapter Meeting in Lansing. I also know that the Supreme Chapter will 0 ur resolve them in the best interests of all . Now you, as individual members of .. Fraternity who are reading these comments, can best assist yourself, your FralP ternity, and your sons, and the young men of the future--and thus in turn~ ~eat; this country of ours to continue its Christian ideals and concepts--by partlclP 1 ing in your Fraternity. Participate in the 29th Supreme Chapter Meeting by cal 1 attending the sessions at Lansing. If you are unable to do this, assist your 10 alumni and undergraduate _ch~pter. Resolve to bring more new men in~o e~erY 5 e5] undergraduate chapter; br1ng1ng unto us men who have the same Christ1an 1deal we do. Make your chapter a better home for them; a place in which they can ll· ve ~ and mature and become the leaders of tomorrow. Fraternally,

Are Fraternities Snobbish? Are their members selected only from the wealthy? Is a prime prerequisite the attainment by the parents 0 ~ the prospective pledge a position among the "soCtally elite"? Must a member come only from the exclusive "country club set" and have cut his teeth on the proverbial "silver spoon"? 42 Chapters of Pi Kappa Phi were recently surveyed to examine the financial capabilities of the members. Perhaps the results will answer the above charges ! Number of members surveyed: 1615! 202 of these are in school on scholarship! 150 were working at the school to pay a portion of their expenses ! 194 were working outside of the school in the local community in order .to defray expenses! 76 were being employed within their own chapter house as a means of meeting their educational exPenses! From the above we find that 622 out of 1615 undergraduate Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity members surveyed Were dependent upon funds from outside sources to go forward with their higher education. 38.5 or almost 3

5 orlt

of every 8 of those surveyed are in this category. This percentage is much greater than the campus averages in the United States. It would appear that criticism of the nature intoduced M the beginning is unjustified.

PI KAPPA PHI VOLUNTARY

GIFT PROGRAM-1962 The 1962 Voluntary Gift Drive will commence on October 1, 1962. Please remember your Fraternity's needs when you are called upon to contribute. The 1961 Drive was considered successful with 723 alumni contributing $6,217.50. This year's goal is 1,000 alumni contributing $10,000.00 Remember that in your hands lies the future of your Fraternity, Pi Kappa Phi.

BECKY NEWSOME Epsilon National Rose

National Rose of Pi Kappa Phi THE determination of Epsilon Chapter at Davidson College has resulted in their beautiful Rose, Miss Becky Newsome, becoming Pi Kappa Phi's National Rose for 1962. Nominated in 1961 Becky came up against one of the closest races ever for this coveted title and placed fourth. Epsilon Chapter refused to believe that she was not the most beautiful Rose in all of Pi Kappa Phi and again placed her in nomination. Becky, a Junior at Salem College, lists as her hobbies sewing, knitting, and music. These activities make her prime material for a housewife's occupation, which is perhaps realized by Brother Bill Clingman, to whom she is pinned. The very close second place winner was Miss Blanche

McCrary nominated by Alpha Chapter. Blanche is a ~a· tiona! Merit Scholar and resides at Live Oak Plantat 10 0 in South Carolina. d Miss Mary Love Van Inwegen of Towson, Maryl a~ ' nominated by Alpha Upsilon Chapter, was third. N{I~~ Van Inwegen is a Junior at D rexel Institute of T~ nology and is a member of Sigma Sigma Sigma So~orit}'d Fourth Place went to Miss Susie Price nOJmnate n by Omega Chapter.

WHICH WAY AMERICA uThe Incredible Swindle . .. '' by J. EDGAR HOOVER, Director Federal Bureau of Investigation United States Department of Justice

The following at"ticle by f . Edgar Hoover was wt·itten especially for College Fraternity magazines and has not appeat"ed p,-eviously in any other publications. Mt·. H oover, a member of Kappa Alpha Fraternity, is author of numerous books and at"ticles and is a recognized autho,-ity on the nature and extent of the ''Red Menace ." Phi K appa Phi thanks Mr. Hoover for writing this article, which has been edited to conf orm to space requirements.

Worldwide reports on the Communist menace appe-aring day after day in news· papers across the Nation, make it inconceivable to me that any citize n reared in traditional American freedom and capable of reading the written word or hearing that word spoken, cou ld fai l to be aware of the inherent evil in communism . It seems to me that not even the incredibly naive could be other than conscious that communism is something less than good. Yet I am shocked and astonished to be co nfronted again and again with an attitude which, summed up, might be expressed best is the following question:

"But What's Wrong With Communism?" At such times one wonders if the Englishman who said, "The more gross the fraud , the more glibly it will go down . . ." might have been right. The communist swindlers seek to ensnare their victims with the offer of a glittering package deal-something for everybody. This was never more obvious than in their much-hearlded program for the next 20 years. Advertised widely for its propaganda effect, the " draft program"

John Edgar Hoover

was carried in full in the Aug ust 20, 1961, issue of "The W orker" under such subheadi ngs as " Communism- the Bright Future of All M ankind." In it, the world is promised a go ld en d ream-for the future. Every thing is promised to everybodytomorrow. T he words "will be" betray the promissory note w hich only the g ullibl e wi ll sign. T hat note says, in effect, "Yield us yo ur freedom now and we' ll g ive you the worl d tomorrow." The p romissory note extends on and on in the fields of science, cultu re, econom ics, po litics, and moral development. Co mmu nism, of co urse, has not been achieved anywhere. T hat is the promise for the fu ture only. What is the payment demanded for th is ill usory future? No mention is made of past and current costs in terms of lost freedoms, slave labor, concentrati on camps, endless brutalities and slaug htered mi llions. W herei n does th e promise differ from the reality? The answer may be found in the words of a Russian intellectua l who sought asylum not lo111g ago in Canada. T his d istinguished scientist said : " . . . I was depre ssed by the lack of contact w ith the o utside w orld, the

falsity of information, and the di~: 0 culry of self-expression. It beca~e he viou s to me that if I stayed Jn \e U.S.S.R. I would not be able to g~re to mankind all that I could if I w 11 in a free, democratic country. · . · '1[1e is the lack of human dignity Jn U.S.S.R. which hurts most. . . " .

There is no prize today more coveted by communist swind lers than the minds of Unfortunately, many young Amerb do no.t as yet realize that the battle een JOined and that a fierce ideologistruggle presently is being waged. The ltlcally immature sit on the side lines. Politically naive wonder "what is with communism?" while the battle future is being fought-now. The of that battle will determine the human race is to progress in and dignity or whether the slow climb is to be reversed and the centuries rolled back to the deof a slave regime.

seeks to project communism as a progressive, en lightened, humanitari an, philosophy which champions the poor and the oppressed. He strives to promote a general feeling of discontent and unrest as a result of constant demands by means of which he hopes to "politicalize" large groups of people and gain some measure of control over their action. The concealed communist -dedicated to the proposition that the triumph of communism is inevitable-rejoices if his actions advance the forces of communism in the slightest degree. He knows that by each step he progresses, he weakens the bulwarks which protect the individual and eases the way for the advance of collectivism.

The Role Of Fraternity Men! What can fraternity men do to combat the menace of communism? You can set yourself the task of making yourself knowledgeab le on the subject of communism ... Study it . . . Learn to recognize its tactics . . . Be unwilling to swallow communist bait; probe for the hook . . . Remember that the dictionary definition of communism covers abstract theory only. The real meaning of communism is written in spilled blood anguished minds and tortured bodie~. The streams of refugees who risk death to escape from the various communist utopias clearly testify to the unbridgeable difference between communist promise and communist reality. Look, for example, at the way in which its proponents define commu nism. The following answer to the question, "What is communism?" i> set forth in the recent program of the .Communis.t Party o.f the Soviet Union whtch I mentiOned earher: "Communism is a classless social sys-

rem with one form of public ownership of the means of production and full social equality of all members of society; under it, the all-round development of people will be accompanied by the growth of the productive forces through continuous progress in science and technology; all sources of public wealth will gusb fortb abundant1y, and the g~eat principle 'from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs' will be implemented. Communism is a highly organized society of free, socially conscious working people in which public self-government will be established a society in which labor for the good' of society will become the prime vital requirement of everyone, a necessiry recognized by one and all, and the ability of each person will be employed ro the greatest benefit of the people." I have underlined certain words emphasizing the fact that the bait which communism holds forth is a dream allegedly to be achieved in the far distant future. As to that dream , it goes without saying that all men of good will hope and strive for a world in which society as a whole will progress and benefit. But can any thinking man truly believe that by destroying absolutely the individual's freedom, both po liti cally and economically, and substituting for such freedom a drab and stultifying system which is politically totalitarian, physically brutal, and economically wasteful, a golden millennium can be brought about? Only the perpetually gullible and immature can believe that believe a slight cold could be cured by dosing with arsenic. Only the similarly 5

gullible and immature can believe that the freedoms man has struggled for centuries to achieve ought now to be yielded up in return for a promissory note endorsed by swindlers. For the reality of communism is not to be found in abstract theory. The reality is concealed by fraud, falsehood, blatant hypocrisy and unending deceit. And no citizen can combat communism effectively until he gains an understanding of the philosophy which motivates communist actions. The proponents of communism seek to change the world-to remake mankind.

Eight Basic Ideas Of Communism The eight basic ideas which undergird the political mechanism of commu nism are to be found in the writings of Marx, Engels, and Lenin. Let us examine them briefly, but first let us look at the ideal of American political liberty as it is embodied in our Declaration of Independence. In brief but glowing words this great document sums up the free man's concept of both origin and purpose of the institution of government. Men have certain rights, says the D eclaration succinctly, which are endowed by the Creator. Thus, at the very source of our freedom is implicit acknowledgement of that God whom communism denies. The first and basic idea of communism is simply: Nature Is All-There Is No God. Mind, say the communist, is not primary; it is secondary. There is only one reality, eternal matter. This basic substance, assuming different forms, underlies all organic and inorganic things. Material forces are ultimate and such forces are in constant motion. As a result of this ceaseless interaction of material forces in li-mitless flux, all things came into being. According to this theory, man is merely a fortuitous product of this ceaseless interaction of chemical and physical elements. He differs only in degree and not in essence from the stone which lies on the ledge, and the serpent which coils in its shadow. A second basic idea of communism may be summed up: Body Is All-There Is No Soul. Communism teaches that there is no God; it follows that there is no soul and no immortality. Matter is the only reality; matter which changes form. The mind of man and what is referred to in JudaicChristian tradition as soul are not grounded in reality. Mind is merely a function of matter and is dependent upon matter. Matter through mind secretes thoughts. Within limitations this "mind" can embrace knowledge of everyday facts. The mind, which is an expression of matter, can know enough to be atheistic. It can also know truth-meaning, of course, the " truth of communism." The test of truth is practice. Whatever practices strengthen and apply communistic principles are, ipso facto, true practices. Another basic idea undergirding communism is: All Religions Are False and

Harmful-All Religions Must be Destroyed. Religion, according to communist teachings, is an instrument used to control and exploit the great masses of poor people, the working class. It is an instrument of class oppression in the hands of the rulers. It holds up sentimental ideas of peace and brotherly love which interfere with the proletarian revolutiin . Religion has no place in the communist social order. It must be torn up root and branch. It must be ruthlessly destroyed. The basic idea of moraliry on which communism rests is simply this: P1·oletarian Utility Constitutes the Moral Code. Communism teaches that all existing moral codes derived from supernatural concepts are false. The Ten Commandments thus become invalid. Absolute principles of right and wrong are thrown into the discard. The test of validity as to the morality of any act is: does it conform to the evolving state of nature; does it serve the proletarian revolution? If it does, it is moral. If it does not, it is immoral. This is the fountainhead of communist belief that the end justifies the means. Thus it becomes not only legitimate but moral for the communist to lie, torture or kill if by so doing his act tends to promote the advance of communism or to help maintain the communist social order in every area on which it has fixed its grip. Basic to communist belief is the following idea: History Is a Materialistic Process-It Does Not Reflect the Spirit of Man. It Is a History of Class Struggle. In the communist view, history is solely a history of class struggle--of economic forces. All history is controlled and directed by immutable laws of "economic determinism." Karl Marx discovered these laws. Dialectical materialism illuminates them and their place in the past, present and future evolutionary process. All human institutions have their primary origin in the economic factor, according to communist interpretation. In the same interpretation, gifted men do not make history, nor do idealistic principles and the spirit of man serve as fundamental determinants in the march of historical events. Still another idea basic to communism is: The Capitalist State Is an Instrument of Oppressio1z-It Must Be Destroyed. Since, according to communist theory, the capitalist state grew out of savage class struggles over private ownership and since such ownership is largely responsible for all the ills of the world, the free enterprise form of government, along with all instruments of capitalism, must be liquidated. This includes free schools, the free press and the church. Cultural organs must be brought under communist control and private ownership must be eliminated. The capitalist state must be supplanted by the dictatorship of the proletariat-the Soviet State. To achieve this, communism teaches: Revolution and a Revolutionary Method Are Necessary-The Rulers of Nations Will Not Surrender Peacefully. What does

this mean? There must be agitation of the entire social order, deliberate development of class warfare, use of hatred as a weap0°· Dupes must be manipulated into helptng . tO translate the theory of revolution tO 1 reality. All phases of the existing sooa order must be infiltrated. Following a pattern which is flexible in practical prod grams as adapted to varying localities a~ ' situations but which is absolutely inflex1b e as to principles and objectives, communistl must work themselves into strategic post· tions from which they will be enabled tf exert influence on immense numbers ~I people. Such influence will be out. of ad proportion to numbers. Properly d1rect~ : 1 0 this influence will develop the revo 1 tionary situation to the proper pitch~ ~ which time those in control will dlr~ h the violent and bloody action by whtC communism comes to power. And, with a finality that is abs~l~;d~ the communist believes: Only a W 0 '. 1 wide Communist Social Order Conforlll 1 0 to the Nature of Man; Meets the Needr\ 15 Life; Is Adequate. Therefore Only d 'tte Type of Social Order Should Be Perm 1N t to Exist-All Other Social Orders Do ]'l~t Conform to the Nature of Man; Do e Meet the Needs of Life; Are inadequJI\; Therefore All Other Social Orders l'Ju Be Destroyed. . and Even today thousands of natve . 'dte uninformed accept the ideological swJ~at handed them. They take for granted J11· it is the intent of the proponents of '~~e munism merely to reform and Jmpr et existing institutions. They have no~ Yg grasped the fact that it is the undevtat~e intention of such persons to change nd 3 world, to destroy existing institution~, e. to remake mankind in their own . t:O~et · ho~~o That image encompasses a stra1t·P d •nd · id an nev~ system of thought control more ng fore the more farreaching than any ever hereto the envisioned by any tyrants throughout fll·l th~s, history of mankind. The triumph of Seek munism would mean the dosing off 0 ee· ~nd 1 conduits through which any ideas of r IOd 1 dom for the individual might flow. tid_i1

challenge. Free speech embodies a specific responsibility. Mr. Justice H olmes said it succinctly: "The most stringent protection of fr~e speech wou ld not protect a man 10 falsely shouting 'fire' in a theater and causing a panic." Simi larly, the scholar must be grant_ed the broadest freedom to teach, but the nght of academic freedom is balanced by ~he o~ ligation to be honest and forthnght 10 that which is taught. The student assumes that statements made by a teachc;r are accurate and factual. By no perver~10n of reasoni ng can the right of academtc freedom be warped to encompass the nght to feed distortions and falsehoods to studen.ts. Academic freedom presuppo_ses. ~oral mtegrity and pr?fessio~al ob)~ttvtty based on a fair and 1mparttal appra1sal of facts. Consider whether or not one w:ho espouses the end-justifies-the-means ph 1l ~sophy of communism-inherently absolut1st, totalitarian and amoral-can do othe~ than. sc;ek to subvert belief in the Judatc-Chnstt_an ethic which undergirds freedom of the mdividual. . It is a fact, tragic but unqu_es~tonable, that scores of innocent and idealtst1c young Americans have been tricked and used by the communist conspirators. Ofte_n . such young people are naive, uns~phJsttcated and uninformed as to co~mumst. strategy a nd tactics. The result ts that m many

instances they do not even know that they are being used to do the work of the ideological swindlers, and stubbornly refuse to believe that the stuble hand of communism could in any way direct their actions. Communism feeds on ignorance. It lives on lies. The element of deceit inherent in this evil philosophy dooms honor and dignity, destroys integrity, and subverts the very qualities which give the human creature the right to call himself a man. Reduced to its simplest form, the ideological warfare in which the who le of mankind is currently involved is a struggle between the spiritual and the material. For the illusory benefits to be doled out masterto-slave in a world of coercion known as communism, the individual is requested to relinquish his birthright of freedom earned through centuries of struggle. Here, in our country, the conspirators seek to place a shameful slogan on American lips. Parroting "Better Red Than Dead," they strive to promote fear and despair by means of which they hope to induce inertia and submission. These incredible swind lers, seeking to impose a conform-or-die system of absolutism on mankind everywhere, are attempting to direct hoodwinked Americans into doing their evil work for them. They hope to use American hands to close the conduits of freedom which the Founding Fathers opened so magnificently to the world. 7

With the assistance of their alumni, this is another ~hapter that has set a goal of a new home and has realIZed their dreams. The slum area surrounding Illinois Institute of Technology was cleared as part of an urban renewal project. Anticipating this, Alpha Phi Chapter, an outstanding administered chapter, has been building a housing fund for many years. Their sacrifices over the Years have resulted in an outstanding structure. Contemporary in design, the new Alpha Phi home at 3333 South Wabash Avenue, is not only attractive but most livable. Twenty-four bedrooms, accomodating hvo men each, adequately accommodate the space requirements of the chapter. A tremendous, furnished Dasement provides the chapter with a meeting room as Well as a large social area. The showplace living room rs saved for less strenuous use.

We salute all that made these homes possible-alumni and undergraduates; especially to the alumni, for in thus participating they fully indicate the true meaning of Fraternity. We encourage the alumni of other chapters to investigate the housing conditions within their chapter. Take action to improve if needed. If activity is already geared to improved housing, as is the case at this moment with: Chi, Stetson University Alpha Epsilon, University of Florida Omicron, University of Alabama Alpha Eta, Howard College Beta Alpha, Newark College of Engineering Alpha Xi, Brooklyn Polytechnic Instirute Tau, North Carolina State College pitch in and help out.

PI KAPPA PHI . .. A PERSONAL AFFAIR

Pi Kappa Phi ... A personal affair. There is not a better statemen 1 with which to describe our fraternity. The basis for all frater~:h 1 existence is the personnal evaluation placed upon your association W, your fraternity. To the true brother belongs the satisfaction in kn~W, 10 g he has evaluated his fraternity, and finding the results to his 1Jk1ng, is willing to work for the honor and glory of his order. . n To accept a fraternal order is to accept a fraternal obligatiOn, aa / obligation of responsible action and thought. Once recognized a~ n \ member of a fraternity, you immediately become a living exten 510r ( of an intangible association. This association will prosper with Y00 efforts, and die with your indifference. . 't' Pi Kappa Phi . . . A personal affair. To respect it yields d 1g01 )t 1 and self-respect. To work for it cultivates unselfishness. To honor develops love for your fellow man.

PI KAPPA PHI • • . A SPRING OF TRADITION , f (

Administration Building College of Charleston

Pi Kappa Phi ... A spring of tradition. A wealth of fraternal sp~r~ flows from the assembled brothers of Pi Kappa Phi. A spirit whJCe· l enriches .the tradition of the past and builds a heritage for the. futu:nt Our a1ms have been constant throughout our history, the ennd1rtl IV of the human spirit through an understanding of our Maker and feJ io or man. . To the members of our fraternity lies the challenge of preservwg 0 ve heritage. Pi Kappa Phi offers to each man the opportunity to achle re the priceless essence of true friendship, for within our gates there a no strangers. si· , True friendship to the faithful brother is a responsibility. A respon or 1 bility of extending his friendship to those who have accepted 0en 1\ap order, regardless of that individual's frailties . Friendship between !11 al of < builds loyalty for a common purpose, the fulfillment of a frater;er ~on desire to guide, assist, and defend ·the name and honor of your brot sc:o and fraternity. the J ~hi1 Pi Kappa Phi ... A spring of tradition. A spring which refresheS ou body as well as the spirit. A spring that will only exist as long as Y . continue to honor and support the order.

PI KAPPA PHI . . . FOUNDED ON A WORTHY PRINCIPLE Pi Kappa Phi ... Founded on a worthy principle. A principle of Christian brotherhood and understanding. Founded at the College of Charleston on December 10, 1904, Pi Kappa Phi was destined to grow from its inception. "The success of Pi Kappa Phi can be attributed to two things. From the beginning we had the right principles. But in that regard we were no different from other organizations which start bravely but fail. So there must be a reason why we did not fail. After the influence of the founding group was no more and the mantle of authority had passed from our shoulders, there were other men, ready, able, wi ll ing, and on whose shoulders this mantle fitted, and there came a never ending stream of men, devoted, zealous, able, fervent. Yes, in 1904, we sparked the idea, but it is to those men who came after us and are continuing to come in a steady unbroken stream that we owe our wonderful Pi Kappa Phi." This stream of men have built a temple. A temple supported by a single arch. In the center of the arch is the keystone, the stone without which the arch would fall. This keystone is composed of the principles of our order, the words you learned when you were brought into the full effulgence of fraternal light. 12

The official magazine of the fraternity and successor to "The Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Journal," THE STAR ANo LAMP provides the vital link between the members of the Fraternity. Published quarterly, the official voice of Pi Kappa Phi, speaks the news of alumni, undergraduate chapters, and fraternity operation. First published in 1909, THE STAR AND LAMP has built over the years a reputation among fraternity magazines. Ea~h member of Pi Kappa Phi receives a lifetime subscnption to THE STAR AND LAMP upon his initiation into the brotherhood.

The White Diamond, the official pledge manual of the fraternity, is the means by which fraternity history becomes a moving and living experience to the neophytes of our order. Published in a narrative as well as factual format, the White Diamond provides an insight to the events surrounding the founding of our fraternity as well as a year-by-year report of continued growth and prosperity. Factual information concerning insign~as, awards and emblems is also provided in a narrative format. A copy of the White Diamond is provided during pledgeship so that a neophyte may learn of the history and traditions of the fraternity.

Chapter Publications Just as THE STAR AND LAMP provides a light among the brothers of our fraternity on a world-wide level, the individual chapter publications or newsletters provide a detailed account of the happenings on a chapter level. Published three times a year, these newsletters are of special interest to the alumni of the respective chapters. Chapter publications are entered in national competition for the President's Plaque each year. Publishing a chapter newsletter gives valuable experience to the brothers interested in bringing to life the events and history of their chapter and fraternity.

PI KAPP COLLEGE Pi Kapp College, a training school for the officers of undergraduate cha pters, has become an integral and necessary part of our fr<Lternity. Each odd numbered year in the month of August the officers of our chapters and colonies converge on a central location for four days of concentrated instruction. The college is designed to develop better leadership for the chapters and consequently for the fraternity as a whole. Touching all areas of chapter operation, the attending brothers are given the opportunity to discuss their ideas and methods in a common forum. Qualified speakers, including the National Council of the

Fraternity, instruct the assembled delegates and impart the value of their experience. Given the opportunity to room togeth:r, the delegates soon begin to freely dJS· cuss the problems which face their ch?P~ ters and the value of group conversat1° often brings a solution. . ve· The presentation of awards of ach1e. ment, diplomas, and citations, is a fittmg climax to the events of Pi Kapp Colle~~ Each Brother returns to his chapter v.r~th a better understanding of how to cope 1 chapter problems and with the know! ge that he truly belongs to a national frater· nity.

DISTRICT CONCLAVES To better serve our chapters, Pi Kappa Phi has d~vided the country into eleven districts or sections. Within these districts are a given number of chapters and colonies with a District President handling the immediate supervision of their activities. Each year to build a closer bond among the Brothers of these chapters, a District Conclave is held. Discussion at these conclaves centers around District as well as chapter prob-

!ems and activitlies. 11he open forum fori mat is used and the thinking and id~ ~~ the members often solve many indiv1du d chapter problems. Prominent speakers a~e instructors lecture those assembled at th eS District Conclaves on proper procedur and operations. ·1d These meetings are designed to buled stronger chapters through better inform d members and in turn a better district an a finer fraternity.

T HE SUPREM E CHAPTER Each two years, the fraternity holds what is officially termed the Supreme Chapter of the Fraternity, or more commonly called National Convention. The Supreme Chapter is composed of living Founders, past and present national officers, past archons of undergraduate cha-pters, past district presidents, and chapter advisers, chairmen of standing committees, and duly elected representatives of undergraduate and alumni chapters in good standing with the national organization. The Supreme Chapter, as the name implies, has the ultimate authority in the fraternity. Guided by the nacional officers, the great power to make decisions and set policy remains with the undergraduate delegates. This is truly a Fraternity gov16

erned by the thinking and maturity of the members of our fifty chapters. The Supreme Chapter reviews the work done by its officers and the chapters during

each biennium, takes action which be~o:l law by due process and elects n~ uothe officers to govern their Fraternity l.l1 interim between meetings.

Alumni serve as District Presidents. The supervision of the chapters and colonies within a given geographical area falls to our District Presidents . These men, prominent business and professional leaders, provide a vital and necessary link in mai ntaining our national organization. Their work, oftentimes unnoticed, deals main ly with organizing district events and activities. Visiting each chapter in his district at least once a ye~r. the District President has the oppo11tunity to assist in building our nationa!l structure. These are men with varied backgrounds, talents, and interests, but cltey all have one goal-to make Pi Kappa Phi a stronger and better fraternity.

"~ith honor goes service." This saying, appltcable to all areas and positions in fraternity life, is never more vividly portrayed than in tne National Council of our fraternity. To these six professional and business leaders falls the responsibility of administrating our fraternity in the interim_ between Supreme Chapter Meetings. W 1th the honor of the position they hold as their only remuneration, these, the members of the National Council are responsible for the welfare and conti~ued progress of Pi Kappa Phi. Experienced, wtse, and loyal, the National Council guides our order in the pursuit of the lofty goals set by cite founders of our Fraternity.

The Tyranny of Agnostic Liberalism

"Real academic freedom is freedom to seek the truth. But our modern tyrants of the campus deny that truth exists. How ca n they demand freedom to seek something they don't believe exists and claim sanity in the same breath. Yet, on most campuses today if you disa gree or fail to conform with the cult of NON-BELIEF you are called an extremist, a facist, or a sonof-a-Bircher. This is blackmail. . . . In a

world where God is dead, and there is no ~ right or wrong there can be no Fraternities ~ as we understand them. ~

"The first evidence of the tyranny of agnostic liberalism on a campus is the arbitrary restriction of the freedom of fraternities to select their members. The evidence of VICTORY for this tyranny is found on these campuses which have alreadY abolished fraternities. These actions are the result of the force of blackmail."

State Kappa Phi Local Fraternity

In September of 1961, the Reverend W. Kirk Allen, Jr., of Kingsport, Tennessee, expressed an interest in the reactivation of our Kingsport-Tri-City Alumni Chapter. A prelimin ary meeting was held with Traveling Counselor Scharfenstein present. It was determined that a project would be necessary in order to create and maintain the interest and participation of the alumni. Through the efforts of the centra] office an expansion contact was made with East Tennessee State College. Approval from this institution for colonizrution was mad e dependent upon alumni interest in a chapter on the C~mpus. The two separate movements were then combined, and as a result, both were successful. . With the reactivation of the Kingsport-Tri-City AJumO! Chapter and their promise of assistance, East Tennessee State gave Pi Kappa Phi permission 'to colonize. Brothers Paul HaJkiades, Alpha Sigma, and Randy Shelton, Epsilon, were on campus and served as colon-

Veteran Sports Writer Honored W. N. IBilll Cox RHO Chapter

It takes a good man to be honored by his contemPoraries. This distinction recently fell to Brother W. N. (Bill) Cox, sports columnist of the Virginia-Pilot newsPaper of Norfolk, Virginia, when the Atlantic Coast Sports Writers Association presented him their Service to Sports Award. Bill became the only newsman ever to receive the award. Brod1er Cox was initiated into Rho Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi at Washington and Lee University in 1921. lie later transferred to the University of North Carolina where he graduated in 1925.

While at the University of North Carolina, Bill partici路 pated with Kappa Chapter and now considers himself a member of both Kappa and Rho. His selection announce路 ment said in part, "The role Bill Cox has played in the development of athletics cannot be measured. He has been a staunch advocate of all the good things in athletics and has helped many writers, athletes, and coaches." While at Carolina, Bill was not a participant in athletics, but so soundly supported athletics that he was awarded a varsity letter. He was active in the Carolina Playmakers (as was Brother Thomas Wolfe), and one of the plays he wrote, "The Scuflletown Outlaws" is still considered a gem among folk players. "The Fearless Colonel", as Bill is affectionately known, is certainly one of the unsung heroes of sports. Pi Kappa Phi is proud of W. N. Cox and of his 37 years of devotion to our nation's athletics.

GRADUATES and are not two opposing thoughts. We who are alumni often look upon th~s Fraternity function as belonging only to the undergraduate members. This IS definitely not true. Rush is the personal obligation of each Pi Kapp-gradu.ate and undergraduate. If you are now a Pi Kapp you should be interested in insufl 0 the future of your Fraternity. Its future is insured by the continuing influx 0 qualified pledges.

NTIL the day you die, your actlvtttes will put you in daily contact with younJ men who are either in college or who are at that moment making plans to atten 路 This contact may be with young men in your neighborhood, church, etc. The contact may be indirect; that is, through intermediate parties such as friends, rela路 tives, business acquaintances or even their parents. Talk up Pi Kappa Phi at ever'/ opportunity to these individuals. Keep your Fraternity's name constantly before these potential Pi Kapps.

ELLING is everybody's business. Regardless of your occupation or profession Y011 are busy selling yourself each day. Your Fraternity is but an extension of yoursdJf. Selling the young student Pi Kappa Phi should then be easy. Don't delay, start to ay selling Pi Kappa Phi.

OW often do we suddenly realize that an opportunity to be of service haS just escaped us? This can be occurring at this moment. The boy next door-th~ newsboy-your business associate's son- the Eagle Scout in the next block-Y0111 11 Ow11 Son or Yotmger B1'other. Somewhere around you there is a boy to whom Y~ can present Pi Kappa Phi . Do it now, and don't forget to send us h is name. A rep Y card is provided for your convenience.

Are You a Pi Kapp? Or Were You One?

II', 'urp•·i<ing to note how many of our alumni refer to their fraternity affiliation in the past tense, as though their membership no his longer existed. Such comments as "I was a Pi Kapp at . .." and ies ~ .~.~.\ "When I was a member ..." are not uncommon. at ~~ For some reason, the obligations so eagerly assumed as new i~~ l f=-~ ~::1:::=,.,-,tl):=:::;:~l initiates, the oaths taken as lifetime vows, seem to fade in the minds of members after graduation. What was cherished by the undergraduate (j§PS~ often is forgotten by the alumnus. While no one will dispute the fact that fraternities exist primarily for the undergraduates, we should remember that membership is for life, and is not something that should become merely a j foggy memory. People who actively support an organization naturally feel a gt·eater sense of identification 111g I 1d. I with it than do those who contribute nothing. The same is true in a fraternity. Not all of us can 'he afford to give large sums of money, and not all of us live close enough to an undergraduate chapter ~Ja· to give directly to them of our time and efforts. ~Z But there are small things that all of us can do, things that will give us a sense of accomplishment and pride and help us to continue to feel a part of the Fraternity. One of these is to recommend prospective pledges to our chapters. In doing this, we aid not only the chapters and the entire Fraternity tht·ough the chapters, but we rekindle our own interest in Pi Kappa Phi. Our renewed interest makes us proud, makes us men who say, ''I am a Pi Kapp." ou Let's keep this Fraternity one we can all be proud of, and maintain our indi~Jf. vidual pt·ide by doing our share to help the present undergraduates. Let's be lay good Pi Kapps! Are you a Pi Kapp? Or were you one?
